You can't shoot a perp who has surrendered.

He was probably afraid that he would be attacked if he tried to hold the perp until the cops came so he felt he had to shoot the attempted rapist in the leg to disable him.

How does the homeowner know that he's really surrendered and not just faking it? How does he know he doesn't have a concealed weapon?

It's wrong to kill and unarmed man, but its right to shoot a dangerous person in the leg to incapacitate them.

You can in Texas, but you are prohibited from eating them.

>>You can’t shoot a perp who has surrendered.<<

Sure you can. It’s just not considered play fair.
